Body Shaming - Comments

Oh yes, I know what you mean. I have been a victim of it myself, but I learnt to just ignore it and laugh at it, and i've never been happier. When I tried to tell them to stop and prove that they were being jerks, that made it worse for me. Really, All I think anybody is doing is fueling them on now; they know it annoys you, and that's the whole point of their taunting, they relish in seeing you get mad about it :/

Yeah, I agree. Body shaming is just... not good. That's putting it lightly, I know haha.

I don't know, I've been both incredibly overweight and incredibly underweight (I'm at overweight right now). After finally trying to recover from anorexia, all people could say was "You used to be so skinny...what the hell happened?" You didn't compliment me when I was skinny, you're not complimenting me now that I'm fat. What do you want me to be?!

Body types are different. That's how humans are. I wish everyone would just realize that we're all beautiful in our own ways and that nobody has the right to tell us we aren't.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. But I think that people would kinda understand how they hurt others with their comments if they read articles like this. I mean, it has to get addressed. We can't just let everyone bully everyone and let it slide. You know what I mean?

I just wish people would stop bloody talking about it to be honest (no offense to you), it's just that when people continue to talk about an issue - that breathes more life into the issue itself. So far as I'm concerned, weight means nothing - other people need to start thinking like that aswell.

Oh no need to apologize, we're all biased in one way or another. I liked the point of your blog, regardless.

I agree that all shaming is bad. And, yeah, men like whatever they want. And sorry my post was kinda biased to they skinny shaming, but I totally agree with everything you're saying here. :)

Nothing got rid of fat-shaming, it just started skinny-shaming.

You don't even know how hard it is to try and stay strong after someone has verbally insulted your body and not one single person swoops in to tell you that you're beautiful.

Being a fat girl, I can say no one ever swooped in to tell me I'm beautiful unless I posted it online, 100% of the time everyone laughed and joked about weight even more. Both shaming is bad, neither are worse than the either because they are both equally traumatizing.

I can't stand body-shaming, I think it's wrong and that's why I get mad seeing the images on facebook about "Real men like curves" there's an image I shared that I liked it had the before quote marked out and said, "real men like whatever the fuck they like" Idk why people have to point out what "real" men like.
